There isnt. I like my personal space as well - one thing that drives me NUTS about living in this part of the world is the complete lack of personal space in crowded public places.
But bragging on an internet forum how you'd drag someone off their bike and beat them just because they high-fived you or initiated some non-aggressive physical contact seems a bit excessive, dont you think?
If you really think any sort of physical contact constitutes assault, you need get a sense of perspective. Given all the various things to worry about in life these days, one must have a really small world view or be a sociopath if casual physical contact is interpreted as assault and treated as such.

I'm glad the world you live in provides enough safety that you feel comfortable with random strangers touching you whenever they please... irregardless of what their intent might be or what kind of weird skin borne plague they might be carrying. This is not my world.
I take it back - you arent a tough guy, you have psychological issues, and I shouldnt be making fun of you for it.
